What’s the EPIC Relocation Service?

The EPIC Relocation Service consists of a web application and a mobile application for smart phones. Both applications will allow expats - whether
still being at home in their country of origin or while exploring Brussels for the
first time - to find more easily interesting property in Brussels with the help
of various municipality indicators (e.g. demographic information or average house prices) and points of interests (e.g. public transport or facilities like schools or shopping malls). In this way, it will be possible to
explore in detail neighbourhoods around interesting properties while being
outside Brussels or while walking around in the city. Moreover, the application
gives the necessary information to organise an expat’s practical and
administrative duties when relocating to Brussels.
